Review of Zucker's Bagels & Smoked Fish

This is a reasonable option if you are going out for bagels in the area with non-GF friends. Your basic takeout bagel shop with lots of amazing smoked fish, cream cheese/butter and egg sandwich options. They have a few tables inside and more outside (self-serve.) GF Bagels are from someplace else, smaller, and come frozen; they prepare them for you in a separate area (guy at the counter was very up front with this info). I would not have felt safe here, because there is no GF space or labeling and they smear the gluten bagels with knives that go right back into the cheese and fish containers, however, the server behind the counter was happy to give me cream cheese from a fresh untouched batch. I have had better GF Bagels, but I have also had far worse, and the lox was amazingly delicious! Tables were covered with gluten - I washed mine down carefully before eating. Not inexpensive, not GF-centric, but yummy and a good option for you if you have non-GF friends who love bagels. I am celiac but asymptomatic so I don't know if I was glutened!
